    Who would it be?

    This new "teaming up" trend in the NBA got me thinking about which 2 guys (I know some are doing 3-somes...but I'm sticking with 2) I'd take as a tandem for my franchise.

    I'd go with Durant and Howard. It'd be way too sexy of a combo to pass up on imo.



    and



    sorry sonics fans....low blow, I know

    Lebron/Howard and it isn't close

    Durant is a great scorer but he doesn't have the same game as LeBron.Give me the 6'9" guy who can run the point and will average 7+ assists per game making everybody around him better

    Tough to narrow it to 2. I think James has to be 1 and then I think you can highly debate between Rose, Durant, & Howard

    LeBron vs Durant was were I struggled. I think I'd have to pack the middle with Howard regardless tho.

    LeBron and Wade would be a pretty sick combo...

    but yeah, Lebron and Howard is the correct answer here, and the incorrect answer is Brian Scalabrine and Greg Oden.

    LOL that got a good laugh from me. Perhaps I overvalue a good point guard? Just always thought that if you wanted to start a team from scratch you'd pair a small ballhandler with a big man who can score. Always though point guard and forward or center was the best start to build your team from.

    I agree, but don't you think Deron Williams would be a better combo PG than Paul?

    both you guys would honestly leave off Lebron when starting a team....a guy who is avg. 29ppg, 7asg, 8rpg and is 27 ?!?!??! gotta be a level

    fwiw pg and dwight would be my #2 option over durant and dwight....

    Dyz chose LeBron, just paired him with CP3 instead of Howard.

    I just think CP3 is hurt too much to be in my top 2...and having him paired with LeBron is somewhat overkill, since LeBron can be a ballhandler/distributor.
